you were brought back into my mind tonight.
and it made me realize just how very much i am missing you.
i see bits of you everywhere i go.
there's a boy in my math class with your same name.
your name.
it's all i think of nowadays.
it repeats throughout my brain.
5 words.
2 syllables.
over and over again.
reminding me of how much i miss you.

d.l.b.

wrap me in your arms and tell me you love me
for then everything will be alright
no more worries
no more fear
no more cold and rainy days alone

come, and hold my hand
tell me i'm safe
sing me a song
a quiet, soft lullaby
no more bright and sunny days alone

come, and dance with me
make me smile
make me laugh
tell me stories to make me happy
no more days alone.

d.l.b.

you knew exactly what you were doing
you knew exactly who you were hurting
how can you be this way?
******* the joy out of doing what i do best
just like a venomous snake
does it make you happy
to see the sadness in my eyes
to see my sorrowful heart
to know that i sit in the corner of my dark room
hoping that what you said will be forgotten?
but we both know it won't
does it satisfy your soul
that i somehow find the strength to see you everyday?
no
you will hurt me no longer
i will rise up like the sun
and accomplish what you said i couldn't

d.l.b.

my thoughtS are scattered
confused
i dOn't know what to think
i don't undeRstand
how the thought of me consumes youR mind
i'm sorry
mY thoughts are scattered
confused

d.l.b.

the moon envies the sun.
she keeps the harvest
and is praised for her ability to be generous with her glow.

but the moon fails to see
that the sun can also sting.
she ignites and enflames
and can hurt in the worst way.

the sun envies the moon.
she brings out the stars
and helps maintain the waters,
pushing and pulling the tide back and forth.

but the sun fails to see
that the moon brings along blindness.
sometimes she shuts herself off completely,
leaving the stars to finish her work.

the moon envies the sun,
the sun envies the moon.
they are completely different,
but completely the same.

d.l.b.

IT'S SO DIFFICULT TO FIND THE WORDS TO SAY TO YOU BECAUSE YOU MAKE ME FEEL A SORT OF HAPPINESS THAT DOESN'T HAVE A WORD TO GO ALONG WITH IT. AND THE STARS IN MY EYES ARE SO MUCH BRIGHTER THAN THE ONES IN THE SKY, I DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW TO STOP MYSELF FROM SMILING AT THE MENTION OF YOUR NAME.

IT'S LIKE YOU'RE A FLOWER IN A GARDEN FULL OF WEEDS, AND MY HEART ALWAYS WANTS TO BE CLOSE TO YOURS.

D.L.B.

when i think of the first time our lips said hello,
i think of football jerseys
and my favorite pink lighter.
i think of sitting on a tree stump,
feeling so warm inside even though the temperature was cold.
i think of closing my eyes
and feeling your hands rest on the back of my neck.
i think of being with you,
and i think of never wanting to pull my lips away from yours.

d.l.b.
